Well its official Terminator Scc is cancelled despite fan and cast efforts to save it. I just don't get why fox would cancel this show. I know ratings were down and the economy is in the shitter but give it one more season maybe try a different time slot. With Terminator Salvation being released and terminator frenzy back anything Terminator related is money. This show was a surprise. Great action, story, special fx, and superb acting. When they first announced production of a Terminator show my first thought was WTF! I watched and slowly got lured in. By the time Reese showed up with flashbacks of th future war I was blown away. Great robot fights and characters this show really stepped it up as it progressed. Better than T3 and a great addition to the Terminator Franchise this show will be missed. Apparently fox didn't think it was better than Dollhouse,Lie to me, Kitchen nightmares or 'till death that all got renewed. I have to remind myself that this is the network that cancelled Family Guy twice before realizing it was a hit. Well we'll all have 2 great seasons and maybe just maybe if season 2 dvd sell like nuts fox will realize their error. I'd like to hear back from fellow TSCC fans on thoughts, rants, Favorite episodes and where the show may have gone had it continued. Thanks guys.

Fox canceled a show with a small but rabid fan base?
Gee, that's never happened before. ;) |

See: Arrested Development I've never seen the SCC but I heard a lot of good things about it. Still don't understand why shows like this or CHUCK are even close to the chopping block. |

Shit! That was one of only two network shows I ever actually looked forward to. The other was Life on Mars which ABC cancelled too.
I see all the crap that's on TV and I can't help but wonder who makes these decisions? Now there'll NEVER be a resolution to season two's strange, time-travelling ending.

A buddy of mine told me last night that fox has a new terminator show coming out. I think he is insane, but has anyone else heard this? And if by some crazy chance it is true, WTF?
SCC was pretty good, sorry to see it go. But that timeslot is deadly. A lot of shows do not perform well there, and Terminator was struggling. I agree though, with a major motion picture coming out in the same year, it seems curious. But it is Fox, and they are dumb.

Yep remember Firefly. Apparently good enough fanbase to warrant a movie just not a second season.

While it sounds insane to cancel a TV show that would have gotten a load of press with the new Terminator movie, I can kind of understand. The Sarah Conner Chronicles started after the events of T2 and then jumped ahead in time to deliberately skip Terminator 3. While I think that was a great idea, Terminator Salvation picks up 14 years after the last film left off with very definite connections to T3. Fox may have feared confusion because the show and the movie were on very different time-lines with little to nothing in common.
